Is struggling with 1080p files. When playing them it buffers and the playback is VERY jerky.

Can anyone help troubleshoot?

I have only ever played 720p on it but recently have needed to play 1080p stuff but it struggles.

You could try installing http://openelec.tv/ to see how the system runs as a dedicated media PC

I will do that thankyou!
